Class 2 of our Make the Shift Challenge. A short talk about the importance of feeding a loving voice, a seated meditation, and a flow where you can put these ideas into action.

"Start where you are." We begin with a seated meditation to observe the general state of the mind, the quality of the thinking, and the relationship you're having with yourself. Then we flow, and use our practice to still the mind, or to erode the voice of the loud inner critic. Open every major muscle group, and begin the process of knowing yourself if you don't already. Nice to meet YOU.

In Session 3, we deal with resistance. It may be counter-intuitive, but when we start to shift in a positive direction, resistance of all kinds can arise--depression, rage, frustration, fear, lethargy. This week we lean into intense sensation, calmly. Our flow is sweaty, but filled with long holds so we can practice non-reactivity, and continue to strengthen ourselves so we can be with what is.

This week, we dive into the power of being with what is. We let go of our need to control, grip or force, and breathe into the freedom of opening to things as they are. We observe our thoughts in meditation, rejecting nothing, coming back to the now, again and again if necessary. The flow is heart-opening and nurturing, the emphasis is on the breath, so you can stay present, and open up to love.
